Rural Uncleanness.

The Springfield Mass Republican
calls upon Boards OF Health to break
up the dense ignorance OF most OF the
elementary laws of hygiene that pre-
walls in villages and rural communities,
alleging that the necessity for so doing
is again shown by the typhoid fever
endemic at Waterford, Wis. The
Huneing family lived opposite the
Catholic parochial school. In their
ward was q well with the wooden pump
80 familiar about farm-houses, and
here all the school-children were &C.
customed to drink. A son OF the
Huneings came home from Milwaukee
sick with the typhoid fever, and the
utensils used in his care we're rinsed
under the family pump. On July D,
with thermometer at los in the shade,
every child in the school drank from
the contaminated well.
The epidemic resulted, of course; and
it will hang on the longer because FOX
River is damned at Waterford, Hood.
ing hundreds OF acres, the surface oil
the water being covered with slime and
moss that tend to make the locality
generally unhealthy. This is an ex-
terme instance OF u widespread ignor-
ance. Hundreds and thousand OF New
England farm-houses show sink drains
and wells that are n standing invita-
ton to diphthera and typhoid fever,
and everybody in the neighborhood
takes it as q matter OF course. When
you get to smaller settlements than
busting villages, except, perhaps, IN
places that live of from the summer
boarder. there is absolutely no power
of intelligent public opinion on the
subject.
An intelligent minority keep their
surroundings healthiul, but If they
attempt to extend that rule outside
their own door-yards they soon learn
the propriety OF minding their own
business. In such communities scarlet
fever, diphtheria and even chicken
pox" are reckoned regular children S
diseases, a feature 9th spring season,
and when they get into the district
schools children of the clean and UNI
clean suffer alike. The propensity oil
the saualid part of city population
toward filth is checked by the public
authorities, and it is high time that
some rule was established over the
same class in the country, where they
form q large proportion OF the inhabi.
.tants, and where people who are wide
enough awake on other subjects are
strangely blind on this one.

FEONl LIFE TO DEATH

Is out moment II rheumatism or neuralgia
strikes the heart. These diseases are the
most painful and the most dangerous of any
to which humankind is liable. They fly from
one part to another without moments
warning, and lniments and other outward
applications are in themselves dangerous,
because they are liable to drive the disease
to some vital organ and cause instant death
rheumatism and neuralgia are diseases of
the blood. and can only be reached by a
remedy which will drive from the blood the
dangerous acids. Such remedy is Atho-
phoros. 1t has been thoroughly tested and
is a safe, sure cure.
George Schneider, employed at the sash
factory Of Huttig Bros Manufacturing
company, Muscatine, Ia. says: About a
year ago my wife was afflicted with both
rheumatism and neuralgia. She had used
numerous remedies with no apparent relief
Having learned of some of the cures eff
fected by AthlophoroS, j bought some for
her. | think it was four OF five bottles she
used, since which time she has been en-
tirely well of both rheumatism and neural
gia. AS she was very great sufferer, [
consider AthlophOros very efficient rem
edy in curing such case.'
w. G. McClan, clerk for Smith & Bone

rheumatism, but nothing did me any good

Peeps Through FASHIONS Glass.

A few years ago the lorgnette was popu-
lar among English ladies only, but Ameri-
cans have gradually adopted it and now use
it to the eY ciusion of the opera glass;
The woman who carries lorgnette is al
ways certain to be the same one who has
her last six fingers heavily jeweled, and no
better means of displaying the stones can
be found than by toying with lorgnette.
The latest improvement in the lorgnette
shows very beautifully carved standard

the other fitted to the eyes for sight work

Lorgnette frames are made of picked tor

nine inches and are worn dangling in the
folds OF the skirt from fine cord attached

The amount of graceful motions and evo-
buttons of the hand accomplished by means
of the lorgnette is remarkable. The glasses
are sure to need polishing when ideas are

Betrayed by his Horse.
Chicago Herald.


"a horse has played all important part
in Frank Bowmans domestic DRAMA" said
a man from St. Louis at the Grand Pacific
last night 'Mr. Bowman once owned a
horse which his first wife was very fond of
driving. One day Mrs. Bowman ratified
down quiet street in her coupe. The old
horse trotted along at q good gait
until he came in sight of a
little brown cottage standing well
back from the street, when he suddenly
sWerved out Of the roadway, without any
guidance from the reins, and came to dead
stop before the gate. Mrs. Bowman
thought this rather strange. and, whipping
up the old horse. started home.
Three or four days later she was driving
along the same quiet street when the horse
again sWerved out of the roadway and
stopped before the little cottage. Her curl.
osity being thoroughly aroused, Mrs. Bow
man alighted from her coupe, walked ND
the pathway to the house and raped at the
door. A very pretty woman responded to
the knocking.
"'Will you be so kind as to tell me who
lives here"" asked Mrs. Bowman. survey
ing the pretty cottager from head to foot
'''Oh, certainly replied the woman.
Mrs. Bowman lives here
"'Oh, is that sop said the first Mrs.
Bowman, turning to leave. Pardon my
intrusion
"a few months later the Mrs. Bowman
who rode in the coupe got divorce from
her husband, and now the Mrs. Bowman
who lived in the cottage has been making
things torrid for the ST. Louis lawyer"
